The Left’s childish obsession with “fairness”

If you follow politics at all you have noticed, no doubt, that Liberals are fixated on fairness. They argue for higher tax rates on higher income Americans because that satisfies their definition of fairness. Their fixation on racial “diversity” is also partly based on that word fairness. Their opposition to many, or sometimes all facets of Capitalism is also based on fairness. Their fixation on giving government the power to create “equality” is also largely based on fairness. For a Liberal, the idea that some have more money, or better housing, or are more successful is unfair, and therefore the government should do its best to eliminate that unfairness.

As I have watched Liberalism, and its more depraved ideological cousin Leftism over the years, I have noted the immaturity of many who buy into the folly of those twisted ideologies. I have said before that Liberalism is an ideology for the childish, and Liberals fixation on fairness is a great example of the truth of my position. Sometimes if you look closely at a Liberal arguing for the rich to pay higher taxes, you can see a small child, their tear-stained face contorted, as the they yell “that is not fair”.

The past week or so, watching Israel defend itself against the terrorist barbarians of Hamas, I have noticed that “fairness” seems to be at the center of Liberal anger at Israel for defending itself. The argument from many Liberals goes like this. Israel is much stronger than Hamas militarily. Their weapons, their training, the fighting skills are so much better than those that Hamas’s are, so this fight is unfair. I have heard different versions of this idiotic mantra and they all are based on emotion rather than reason. I would love to talk to one of these fools, just once and ask this question. Have you, Mr. or Ms. Liberal, ever thought that maybe Hamas should stop picking a fight with Israel? I can only imagine what their response would be. But I would love to watch them actually have to think about that for a few seconds before they retreated back to the walls of their Liberal fantasy world where fairness is ordained by the United Nations and enforced by rainbow-colored unicorns that make everyone get along by passing out cotton candy.
